Why Study Skills Improve Test Scores and Grades

  • When a child’s grades fall short of expectations, weak study skills are often the real issue.
  • Research consistently shows that how students study matters more than how long they study. Effective study strategies strongly predict test performance and grades. Long-term studies even link improved study skills to better adult outcomes in health, finances, and behavior.
  • Study skills do not come naturally to most children. Many students never learn how to plan homework, study effectively, manage procrastination, or take tests confidently. Strong study skills are often the difference between average grades and straight A’s.
